Could a 17 month old use this cup?

Yes, it is kinda different because you actually have to suck on the cup to get the liquid out. A child should b able to do this. My 12 month old can drink out of this cup, but he turned it upside down and it spilled out. I don't know if I didn't put it together right or if I got a faulty cup.

It's hard for my toddler to open, which is why I like it :-), but I think it would probably be fine for a 5 and 7 year old. You do have to hold the button down (which is under the latch clip/handle) WHILE drinking, unlike other bottles where you flip the lid/straw/latch and it stays open until you close it. Unless you're pushing the button the water won't come out.

Yes, I bought this for my teenage daughter last Christmas and she puts it in all the time. cup still works great!

I would say yes. It looks like the lid is only held by one screw/pin so I'd keep it out of reach of a toddler.

I think so. My 18 month old uses this one and a smaller one. You can adjust the flow with the tightness of the cap...but I think my child will use hers for many years.

I agree with A Carloss. We didn't use these with our daughter until 8 mos maybe, when we started giving water in addition to breast milk. But the great thing about them is they are soft top so it's an easy transition from bottle. As for maximum age, my daughter is 2 years 1 month and we're still using them. We've added a sippy cup that has a straw too, but she's not ready for full on cups yet.

The cups are pretty small for kids that age. If your tween actually wanted to drink out of them, that might be a bit tricky.

I think a younger child can use it if they are mature enough. Its a great cup to transition from a bottle since the spout is soft.

i think it depends on if your child bites on the straw and how gross it starts looking. I personally did not like these replacements because the straws were too long for the smaller cup and they ended up frustrating my son since it wasn't fee to swing in the direction he needed to drink from. we ended up not using these cups anymore and switching to lollacups.

. It's possible but I would look for another type cup. They are quite small and Would be hard for children to paint.

Yes u can use it. My daughter used it when she was 18 months and she had lots of space inside it.

I would say no. She won't be able to press the button. Our granddaughter was 18 months old when she got hers, and she loved it.

My son didn't learn to drink from a cup till he was 2 years old. But these are defiantly the best cups for learning. GL

Yes, you could use it with an 18-month-old, if you could get them on the potty somehow.

This would work well for a child that age. You likely will have to assist with opening/closing the lid, but your little one should be able to use the straw well. So far this has been the best product we have found for not leaking.
